M&M.....Car Hop

When I was in High School I had a job as a Car Hop!  It was on Riverdale Road and was called Maddox Drive Inn.  For the most part it was fun and I made a lot of tips.  I didn't have to wear roller skates or wear a uniform and so that was nice too.  I just had to remember who ordered what so when the food came out on a revolving belt I could get the orders to the right cars.  If the order went back in we got in trouble.  For the most part I didn't have much trouble.....but there was one night that I remember being a nightmare.  
Weber State had a game and everyone decided to stop by Maddox after for a treat.  The problem with that was I think I was the only one working outside because it had been slow.  Needless to say things went back in and I was flustered to the max.  I think the owner was working the inside and instead of getting mad at me I am sure she was laughing at me running around like a chicken with it's head cut off.

When I remembered this memory I thought I'd better write it down.  Not too many people even know what Car Hops are now a days and I am sure my grands don't have a clue.  It's a fun memory of mine!
